Have you ever made a decision, one you thought was hilarious and excellent, and all the etceteras? I sure did.
Hi. I’m Lizzy and I am one of the designers at Irreverent Press. I conceived the initial designs and logo. We all laughed our as–ugh, we thought it humorous. It was. Then.
Irreverent Press has grown and evolved her own style. In general, people have complained more about the old logo than laughed, so that meant it was time to grow as a brand and mature out of the hilarity of putting penises on everything. Now, I just put them on Christmas cards.
Red, white, and dick was a bold move that I should have thought through longer. Ha!


This isn’t the only review like this, but it’s funny and I like it. Then, I realized I didn’t want to exclude people from buying stuff because it was sexually offensive to their children. I wanted them to hate it for better reasons.
Irreverent Press, as a brand, learned a lesson in evolution when Ivy came on board. There was a period of refocus that came when we realized we were just all over the place. Ivy already rocked the punk art in her style. When we combined our loves of all the punk genres – cyber and steam as well as goth, we came out with an aesthetic that is far more refined and polished than I was as a single designer. If I could have worked with Ivy during all those maddening group projects in college I would have done fewer of them all by myself, you know?
I think we have created a new vibe that better reflects what Irreverent Press represents as a brand. The point is to be irreverent – satirically offbeat. I also love robots, neon, and turquoise so it’s all pretty bomb to me.
So, we evolved. And continue to do so.
Catch ya on the drawing board,
Lizzy
